LOOKING BACK
July 30, 1986
Ducati's Paso 750 was on the cover 40 years
ago along with the winners of the Parkersburg
Half Mile and the Unadilla 250cc U.S. GP…
Johnny O'Mara ran out of gas on the last lap of
the second moto at Unadilla, giving the win to
Bob Hannah, who said, "I don't care I won. This
win doesn't please me. O'Mara ran me into the ground."
July 24, 1996
A photo of winner Alessandro Gramigni leading Larry
Pegram and Miguel Duhamel from Brainerd was
featured on the cover 30 years ago... We also featured
an interview with PACE Motor Sports' Gary Becker

Supercross... Sebastien Tortelli won the 125cc
MX Belgian Grand Prix, taking another step toward
becoming the youngest MX World Champion ever.
